Hello,

i try to find out if a pda have a memory card.
i could search the directory but i think it is a bad way.

each card create a different directory-name and i want it independant from
language.

is there a way to find out if a memory card is inside.
and how do i find out the folder.

maybe there is a event that a can usw from the coredll or something like
that.


thanks a lot !

i tried the FindFirstStorageCard() method but when i ran my application my
pocket pc crashed.
i had to make a hardware-reset.

i don´t know why.
i import the note_prj.dll und call FindFirstStorageCard()

i use visual studio 2005 and c# language.

i hope i can fix it...
... or someone help me :)

Depending on what you mean by "a pda", you can try the
FindFirstStorageCard() native code API. You'll have to P/Invoke it. A
quick search on that term using GoogleGroups leads to some interesting
pointers:

i tried "CeRunAppAtEvent".
That works !! An Event that gives me the time I insert or remove a memory
card.

But i don´t want to call a Application.

May be i´m totally on a wrong way !

i had to reset my pocket pc.

ok, i got a new idea. i think a good idea !!!!!

registry !

"HKLM/Driver/Active" have folders which store all active drivers.
i could search in all these folders for the name "DSK2:" or for the Key that
begins with "Driver/SDCard"
(if there is no key that begins with that - break)

than i could take this key value (name of the class) and go to this folder
in "Drivers/SDCard/Class".
("Drivers/SDCard/Class" have folders for all possible memory cards.)

now i read the value of "profile".
then i could go to the profiles "System/StorageManager/Profiles" and search
the profile.
in this folder a read the value of "folder" and i got the Folder name !!!!


Is that a possibility ?

Could anyone verify this ?
